The document summarizes the new IT model for the Catalan regional government. The objectives are to save costs, integrate systems and data, and create new jobs and investments through industrial policy. The strategy involves migrating systems to more efficient technologies, adopting a new purchasing model, and reorganizing IT staff. The timeframe outlines definition, contracting, and a 2-year implementation period. Key sponsors include the CTTI agency and high-level support from the regional government's board of directors.
